Fabulous Mentors..

So in my first rotation, my rotation mentor (that is the person teaching me how things work in the lab) didn't leave me until he was sure it was okay to leave me. Although I can imagine that I am the most exhaustive person ever, he didn't go on any trips anywhere until I had presented.

Here, well it is another story. My current rotation mentor, Jose, for this lab left to a conference last week Wensday, and now he is going to Mexico for a week. He said he will not be back until June 18th. My presentation is on the 26th. In a way I don't mind that he is gone specially to Mexico, where he has absolutely no signal. This will mean that he can't nag anymore about my results. This way we can't get into nasty fights. This way I don't feel like he talking down to me as if I were a donkey. But that doesn't mean that it is right for him to leave me in the middle of my rotation and not come back until a week before my stupid presentation.

In the mean time I've been left with soooo many things to do and only 10 microliters of Anti-mouse PE conjugated MHC I FACS antibody, Hardly enough for me to be able to do 1 experiment....
